Property Assessment

The Assessor’s Office keeps a record of ownership changes, maintains maps of property boundaries, keeps descriptions of building characteristics, and keeps track of properties that have exemptions. The Assessors also analyze trends in sale prices, construction costs and rents to establish the value of all taxable property.

Exemptions
